Overheard By Tom

the scene: Greenfield Village, lunchtime

the actors: Austin and his 6 year old cousin Anna

the props: "hobo lunches", a Greenfield Village specialty- pbj, string cheese, raisins, and applesauce all wrapped up in a bandanna with a stick, hobo style.
The scene begins with Austin and Anna sword fighting with their sticks, both have their bandannas tied around their necks like capes.
Anna: If a bad guy comes you kick him in the stones. Do you know what the "stones" are, Austin?
Anna: Another word for the "canolis". (spelling?)

a short while later....
Austin and Anna are running down by the lagoon. Still playing "get-the-bad-guys-with-the-swords".
Austin: Anna, we've gotta hit the bad guys in the "rocks"!
Anna: No, Austin, it's the stones!
